EQT Corp. will prioritize gas curtailments and its divestiture program in the near term while remaining bullish on gas demand in the future from the growth of AI data centers and LNG facilities.
Speaking on an April 24 earnings call, EQT CEO Toby Rice said the company will continue to curtail production in the face of an oversupplied market at least through May. Simultaneously, EQT is upping the urgency to sell assets and reduce debt as it works to close a March 11 deal to buy Equitrans Midstream for $5.45 Billion.
Asset sales will range from $3 billion to $5 billion. The company has already jumpstarted its divestiture program with an April 5 asset swap with Equinor in the Appalachian Basin. As part of the swap, Equinor will pay EQT $500 million. Rice said the transaction’s value is $1.1 billion when considering synergies, development plan upside, and Equinor’s upstream and midstream assets.
